Does anyone know of an App that is similar to Artisan or Cake Boss for the iPad? or Even an App to store recipes? Your help is appreciated

I am a big fan of Bento. It's the personal database maker from FileMaker.

I use it on the desktop and I can do anything with it. It's easy to learn and program. I used FileMaker before but it was overkill.

You can store your recipes there, you can calculate costs, you can keep track of your libraries, items sold, etc.

I don't like apps that do just one thing. And having used macs all my life, I also want a pretty interface. Cake Boss' interface just doesn't cut right now. I would rather pick up Excel and create my own thing.

FYI, you can download a trial version, I think.

It's only $4.99 for the app ... When I upgrade laptops I will be looking into a Mac and get the software...

I posted the price in case others see this post and want to take advantage of this.

Thank you again icon_smile.gif
